During Art Basel Paris week, HIGHSTAY and Galerie JAG installed Patrick Crulis’s ceramics in Saint-Germain I, now a residence after having been Karl Lagerfeld’s Paris office. The one-evening exhibition set raw stoneware against steel architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday 20 October, HIGHSTAY and Galerie JAG opened Saint-Germain I, in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e9s, for a pop-up exhibition devoted to the French artist Patrick Crulis. The venue, the former Paris office of Karl Lagerfeld<\/a>, is today a private residence in the Curated by HIGHSTAY collection, offered for short or extended stays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evening brought together journalists, buyers, collectors and figures from the creative world, in the presence of the artist and of Jessica Berguig, founder of Galerie JAG. Chris Lager, HIGHSTAY ambassador, and Andjela Milanovic, brand director, welcomed the guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glazed stoneware facing steel bookcases<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Patrick Crulis was born in Versailles in 1965. Trained in ceramics at S\u00e8vres, he then joined the Beaux-Arts de Paris. Represented by Galerie JAG, he hand-shapes glazed stoneware ceramics with organic forms and irregular surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Saint-Germain I, these pieces faced steel bookcases, ivory tones and the precise lines of the interior architecture. Part of the furniture was moved to receive them ; the rest of the furnishings remained in place. Guests walked through the residence’s three levels as those of an inhabited place, not a gallery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jessica Berguig explains the choice : \u201cWe found it particularly interesting to set his work against the very strong architecture of this space. The precise lines and smooth materials create a contrast with the raw, organic and irregular look of his works.\u201d Gallerist, collector and interior architect, she has championed for sixteen years an approach in which art and design take their place in living spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a hotel residence welcomes art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

HIGHSTAY, founded in Paris in 2020 by three entrepreneurs and investors, offers high-end hospitality situated between the private residence and the palace : the intimacy of an apartment, the service of a five-star hotel. Galerie JAG, which takes part in PAD Paris, PAD Saint-Tropez and THEMA Fair, represents contemporary artists and presents designers’ creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Champagne Taittinger and Volzhenka caviar accompanied the evening. For HIGHSTAY, the operation extends the ambition of making its addresses places open to Parisian cultural life, by inviting art into the residence rather than alongside the stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
